It's my happy place. Super friendly and helpful staff. Huge selection, and the key thing is that it is refrigerated. I am always wary of buying dusty unrefrigerated beers. Only places without a TV get a 5 on vibe but otherwise it is perfect.

Of all the bottle shops I visited in the Portland/Seattle area, The Beer Junction is number one! I called them a week before my arrival and asked them to hold a bottle of Parabola. They said they would make my day. The beer selection is unparalleled. Everything is in coolers and separated according to style. The guy behind the counter recommended several bombers in the style that I liked while my purchase kept building and building. After I finished, I went to the bar area and they had just tapped a Freemont 2013 Barrel Aged Abominable (exquisite!). It was like they did it just because I happened to be there, as there were no other customers at the noon hour on a Wednesday. They even provided me with a nice box with separators for all the beers. I highly recommend The Beer Junction. Parking is tough, but worth the effort.

I hit up the Beer Junction last weekend while I was in West Seattle and was duly impressed. There are a handful of these excellent bottle-shop-cum-taprooms in Seattle and, like the others, Beer Junction is a hell of a place. The beers are all organized by style and just about everything is in a refrigerator case, which I like.

I picked up a few bottles that I haven't seen elsewhere around town, and while I might have stayed for a pint the place was absolutely jam-packed on a Saturday afternoon. I will absolutley be coming back here, perhaps on a quieter day, to check out their tap offerings.

This place is awesome, fantastic beers on tap, fantastic bottle selection, customer service is outstanding, prices are reasonable, what more could you ask for? I've gone there and asked about particular beers, got an answer, and as I continued browsing, they sought me out to give me additional information they had thought of or looked up. Everyone who works here is friendly and knowledgeable. Have been here on a couple of occasions and spent some time there on each occasion and never had a reason to think this nothing but a top notch operation. This place is not to be missed in Seattle.

V: This isn't the most relevant thing to assessing a store's vibe, but they had a parking lot! In Seattle! The parking lot was huge for a visitor, with a car in Seattle. Inside there was a well organized bottle shop with a small bar and a great neighborhood feel.

Ser: I received great service from both the bottle shop staff and the bar staff.

Sel: Seattle is blessed to have several great bottle shops and even though I went to this shop after several others this shop still had some unique offerings.

Overall, one of my favorite bottle shops of our recent trip. If it weren't for our amazing experience at Chuck's Hop Shop, I would be touting this as the best bottle shop in Seattle. i would still highly recommend a visit for anyone in the area.

Very clean and well thought-out organizationally, with as good a beer selection as any place in Seattle, and reasonable pricing on top of that, this may be the best bottle shop in town. If I lived closer to West Seattle, it'd be a regular go-to, without question.

Up until yesterday I always told anyone who asked that Bottleworks was the best beer shop in Seattle. And though I still love Bottleworks my feelings changed when I walked into the Beer Junction for th first time yesterday. I walked in around 9:30pm and th place was jumping. Lots of people at the bar drinking the numerous offerings that were on top and having a good time. But what really got me was the selection of bottles for sale as there are for more then any other beer ship I have ever been to. They also had beers I have never seen at any other shop in Seattle such as Big Bad Baptist, Peche Mortel, Avery Tweak and Hopportunity.

Also, the service was really good. Everyone there seemed really friendly and it was not long before someone approached me and asked if he could help me with anything. I told him I was looking for a good Barrell Aged Stout and he immediately showed me a bunch of choices. Really, awesome, friendly service which can be lacking in the Seattle area.

Simply said, I was blown away. I don't make it to West Seattle that often, but that will change now
